Students returning to Charles Hays Secondary School (CHSS) this September will have a new administrative team.
On June 26, the Prince Rupert School District announced Carla Rourke as the school's new vice-principal effective August 1.
"Ms. Rourke has demonstrated commitment to education and the community by leading many projects and fundraisers. Her dedication to her profession will continue to be of great benefit to students and staff at Charles Hays Secondary School," read a press release from School District 52.
Rourke has been employed in the school district in the Fine Arts Department of CHSS since 2006, and holds a teaching degree and Masters of Education in Leadership from the University of Northern British Columbia.
The appointment comes less than a month after the announcement CHSS principal Sheila Wells would be moving to Roosevelt Community School, with Pacific Coast School principal Sandy Pond becoming the high school's new leader.
Currently Kevin Leach and Mike Russell are the school's vice-principals.
